Make sure you talk to the guy sunderfury before coldsteel will give you the quest! Took me awhile to figure that out. Lrn2ReadJup :P

Comment by Sedaine

Question: Does anyone know if you'll still have to do this quest if you were an armorsmith first, and decided to respec' after the expansion?

Awesome site, and the list of mats is very useful, thanks!

Question: How do you change from armorsmith to weaponsmith?appreciate the help =)

Comment by Mirith

You cannot change from One specialization to the other. You have to drop the skill and re-skillup to do that.

Comment by Egebro87

The plan for Massive Iron Axe, is a vendor recipe from the Axe Vendor at Nessingwary's Expedition in Stranglethorn Vale.

The plan for Moonsteel Broadsword is a vendor recipe from the sword specialist vendor in Booty Bay.

Comment by baleog

Is it possible to just buy these weapons off the AH or do I have to craft them myself? And is this quest still required in TBC?

Comment by Shocks

Its still required in TBC.

Ill check now if i can just buy them off the AH, then edit my post.

-None at the AH on my server sadly, but im guessing that its possible.

Comment by Kempos

Yeah, it's possible to just buy it of AH, when I specced Weaponsmith on my warrior I got someone else to craft the Moonsteel Broadsword for me as I didn't have that plan myself.

Comment by Addas

Anyone can tell me where to find Vendor for Moonsteel Broadsword and Big Black Mace?

Comment by Addas

Sry, Instead of Moonsteel Broadsword i meant Heavy Mithril Axe*

Comment by Addas

Thx, but im Bs 215 now, do you know when you learn to train them or can i do it now?

Comment by Borderline

Hi everyone. I need some help here. I placed a ticket with the WoW GM and he sent me to Blizzard's WoW forum, for an answer to my dilema. Unfortunately, there was no answer there either.

I did the talking to Sunderfury first thing and then picked my spec. I went with special weapons crafter. I did the quest, "The Way Of The Weaponsmith" and I turned it in. After that, I have been unable to train for special weapons or armor crafting. I have plenty of gold for the training, the required levels for blacksmithing and experience. Both trainers have new crafting to teach me, as they are lit up. But the "Train" button stays grey and nothing happens when I clicked on it, naturally. I even paid the 5G to relearn my spec and all that did was leave me 5 less gold in my pocket.

Has anyone else had this happen and what do I do to progress in my blacksmithing? Thanks for any help you might be able to offer, in advance.

Comment by sgtperry

hey what lvl do u have to be to talk to sunderfury to start these quests, or is it a skill lvl any answer will be appreciated

Comment by Ikura

Does anyone know if you get to keep these items after the quest? Or does he keep them?

Comment by Shaime

Other than the Massive Iron Axe and the Moonsteel... where can I get the other two other than the AH?

Comment by eDGe87

Heh, i just wasted 150g in mats for this quest ~8)

Comment by kbobk

If you are switching from armorsmithing or relearning a weaponsmithing speciality, do not waste money on the mats as you do not have to do this quest. Just talk to Myolor Sunderfury to switch.

If you have not yet chosen any specialty, you should still have to do this quest.

Comment by Bellar

I recently made the switch from Armorsmith to Weaponsmith so that I could specialize in Hammersmithing. I made this switch at skill level 375. Here is what must be done to make the change and then choose a specialization:

1) Go to the Great Forge in Ironforge and speak with the armorsmithing trainer and ask him to unlearn armorsmithing. This cost me 100 gold.

2) Speak with Myolor Sunderfury nearby, he will present you with two options one of which is to become a weaponsmith.

3) To specialize (swordsmith, hammersmith, or axesmith) you need to go to Everlook, in Winterspring. Once there enter the building with the large telescope and inside are three NPCs.

Lilith the Lithe teaches you how to become a hammersmith.

Kilram teaches you how to become an axesmith.

Seril Scourgebane teaches you how to become a swordsmith.

Speak with the one you want to and ask them to make you a specialist like them; now you have officially specialized. This means that you can go learn all of the weaponsmithing plans and specialized trainable plans that you have the skill for. To learn the high end weapons in the Burning Crusade go to Shattrath and learn them from the trainer at the forge.

Comment by hepska

I had trouble getting someone to give me this quest. Ironus didn't give me the quest until I talked to Myolor Sunderfury just north of Ironus.

Comment by Goldseaker

Im not quite sure wot ppl mean by Weaponsmith and Armorsmith because i am a blksmith and can make both Weapons and Armor. Feedback

Comment by imafish

Help! My BS skill is already 296 but nobody gives me this quest. I asked Sunderfury "to know more about making weapons" and he pointed to Coldsteel, but Coldsteel didn't show the quest. He just has a trainer‘s icon on him when I put my mouse over.I tried to do this quest when my skill was 225/250/275. there are several weapons I can learn from Coldsteel already. Is it a bug or I have to reach 300 just to learn weaponsmith?

Comment by Corgyll

At the blacksmithing-place in Orgrimmar you have to talk to Krathok Moltenfist.Upon talking to him you get two choices:'I wish to become an armorsmith', and'I wish to become a weaponsmith'.

After you make your choice you can then proceed to do the quest for respective specialization.

Comment by banjobult

I have the same problem as "imafish" I have asked "Sunderfury" and I have choosen that he will point out the weaponsmith. But when I got to "Coldsteel" it doesnt appear any quest at all. It just shows the items I can learn, nothing else!

Im gettin frustrated! Have been to SW and the same thing happend there! GAH! What shall I do?

Pleas friends help me!

Comment by Giladris

I can NOT find the plans for either the moonsteel broadsword nor the massive iron axe.

I tried the vendors (both at Nessingway's Camp and Booty Bay) but neither have ever had the plans in stock!

I even tried finding the plans or the actual items in the AH without any luck.

Anyone else having this problem?

Comment by Persapiens

Hey guys, I'm having just a little difficulty figuring this mission out for The Way of the Weaponsmith. I found the learned the two limited supply recipes, and have a Blacksmithing of 270, but when I try to talk to Brikk Keencraft, he doesn't even give me the two last recipes as options. They aren't even red, they just aren't there. I checked and I haven't already learned them, and I asked the other Blacksmithing (Master or Artisan level) NPC's to see if they had the training, but to no avail. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong here?

Comment by Tarak

I just started training my Weaponsmithing 2day on my DK without having every seen this quest.He is level 72 with 236 BSI don't know if this means the quest is removed or if the requirement is not applied to DKs....but either way I wanted to tell everyone about this.

Comment by Mavada

Moonstones! My only hangup with this quest is the lack of Lesser Moonstones! Auction House prices are outrageous (4g each) Drop rate is terrible, had to look them up here so I could remember where to find them. Now I have to go and mine up a bunch of Tin and Iron (I can use the Iron so not ALL bad). Need 12 Lesser Moonstones, had and used 3. I guess it's not designed to be eazy but jeez!

My next gripe will be about Black Pearls. Never even seen one, now I have to find 2!

Oh well, enuff ranting...back to farming...

Comment by Andreas44

In WotLK is there anny point in doing this q ? (if you don't want to get the lvl 70 epics)

Comment by mokajones

What is makes you the most money in the long run? Weaponsmithing or Armorsmithing?

Comment by AnrDaemon

To me, taking Weaponsmith is a most healthy way of specializingin Blacksmithing.Compare with amount of running and money spending to become an Armorsmith... taking Weaponsmith and then respec to Armorsmith could very well save you head and time.

Comment by dibilotyo

Comment by shadowsfyre

This quest chain appears to have been removed... anyone know anything about that?

Comment by NeilReynolds

I'm powerlvling blacksmithing on a lvl 80 that never had blacksmithing before.

I've turned on "Show lowlvl quests" to avoid missing things

I've over 290 skill in blacksmithing, and I've clicked on the questgiver for weaponsmithing. He doesn't offer me the quest, but does offer to teach me recipes my trainer lacks (presumably weaponsmith only recipes, as they're all weapons)

I try clicking on the armorsmith, and he offers to teach me armor recipes without any mention of a quest.

I know they said they'd remove specialization for blacksmiths in Cata, but it looks like they removed it already, and I can't find any reference to this. Is it just me who'd bugged? Has anyone else become a weaponsmith since 3.3.5 came out?

Comment by Sevanick

This quest is no longer available to players.If you want a Lionheart Executioner, you might as well uninstall WoW because you're probably never getting one.

Edit: And now you can-- for about 12 ~ 22k. Yes, I bought two. No, I don't regret it. Yes, my characters are flat broke.

Description

As a weaponsmith you'll find that more often than not, heroes and adventurers will be coming to you for gear. While the workload can be unbearable at times, the riches more than make up for the back strain and ash lung.

Oh yes, <name>, weaponsmiths are the ones with all the gold!

If you wish to join our ranks, you'll need to show me that you can make me a silver or two - I mean, show me that you've got what it takes to be the go to <guy/girl> when people need superior quality weapons. Get to work!
